What is the secret to learning Spanish?
Stephen W asked:
I know some vocabulary after years of struggling with trying to learn Spanish. I’ve stayed months in Costa Rica and heard it spoken daily. But I just don’t seem to be able to get it. I’ve listened to CD’s and they just help me w/ small phrases and more vocabulary. I am so frustrated. It is my dream just to be able to get by in a Spanish speaking country. I’m 38. Is it just too late to teach this old dog a new language?
